On the paper, Sheffield not a worthy opponent for Liverpool. This is also reflected in the position on the standings board; Liverpool is at the top while Sheffield is bottom.
That’s it, Liverpool is also the second most productive team so far (67 goals), only losing to Arsenal (72 goals). Sheffield, on the other hand, became “the biggest goal scorer” by conceding 77 goals.
This situation has made two former Premier League players, Robbie Savage and Chris Sutton, both confident that Liverpool will have a goal feast at Anfield. What differentiates their predictions is the score.
“The second best attack in the Premier League against the worst defence. I can’t see anything other than a win for Liverpool. (Mohamed) Salah will score again. I would predict a comfortable 4-0 win for Liverpool,” said Savage PlanetSport.
While Sutton, in BBCalso believes Mohamed Salah will show off his resistance Sheffield in this match. He predicts Liverpool will have a goal feast because that could be the difference at the end of the Premier League season.
“This is a top vs bottom duel, and Mohamed Salah will be the captain of my Fantasy team, so that should reflect what I predict from this match,” said Sutton, who predicted a 5-0 win for Liverpool.
“Liverpool cannot expect to come and win easily. The finish line is in sight, but the competition could still be tight until the end. Looking at the standings, goal difference can play a big role in the competition.”
